Keep in mind guys that the Meg's sanding system is more or less 3M Trizact; which has been around for years.....No need to wait.
And for what it's worth, before teaching a class on Damp Sanding using the Unigrit System at this years
Mobil Tech Expo I had the opportunity to discuss the differences between the 3M Trizact and the Meguiar's Unigrit papers and Jason Rose did say there is a difference between the slurries which is color and this does equate to a change in the formula/process and this does equate to a difference in the two different products.
Damp-Sanding Demo on Rental Car at Mobil Tech Expo 2010
The sanding mark pattern in the center is after #1500 the sanding mark pattern to the outside fender is #3000
Compounded M105
We ended up sanding down the entire hood of this rental car 3 times plus random test spots over the course of 3 days...
And with a little luck... we never
saw the color black on the face of any of our buffing pads....
So while they are similar they are not identical but I don't know if the proprietary differences are enough to amount anything as far as performance and results go.
As time goes by, because it's the nature of discussion forums to dissect and discuss a topic to death I'm confident any and all minutiae will presented for our discussing pleasure.
That said, it's alway so much fun when on forums we can get this deep into the
little things....
:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol
In the
big picture, both systems are going to work great for wet-sanding or
damp-sanding, at some point
skill level is going to be the major influencer.
And I wish both Meguiar's and 3M offered #4000 like Abralon offers, buffing out #4000 grit sanding marks is a walk in the park...
